Yes, bless those selfless, dedicated tube drivers who take home £35,000 pa for a 35-hour week that involves pressing Go and Stop buttons, and who strike to support colleagues sacked for negligence and fraud or because their pay rises aren't big enough...

Don't get me wrong, the Tube is great when it works, it just seems to be in a permanent state of being-fixed (at almost, but not quite, the same rate at which it breaks) and it's just so amazingly expensive compared to every similar system in the world. I suppose it's the oldest and biggest, which can't be helped, and I think this Public-Private-Pissingmoneyaway thing is a really bad idea, but I also think Bob Crowe's frequent use of long-suffering London commuters as pawns in his political games really doesn't help matters.

Anyway, back to the topic at hand: bless...the couple of passers-by who helped me rescue a pigeon that had a plastic bag twisted around its neck the other day. Although it was probably an idolent, irresponsible pigeon that had it coming, but I'm just nice like that sometimes.

I said London Transport workers because they're all members of this really cool, elite, pagan anarchist group that none of you know about, and one day they're going to lead the revolution, and then you'll be sorry you said anything bad about them.

I did hear these two guys on a train talking about sacrificing goats in Battersea park at Christmas. One of them said it was because virgins were really hard to come by. It wasn't a London Transport train though, and they were clearly satanists.

Ahaha! I bet they were well up for it until you pointed out that their mums would kill them if they got blood on their Marilyn Manson hoodies.
